The said challenge, if we may so, is bereft of any materials. The submission of the petitioner that the tower ought not to have been installed at a densely populated area or near hospitals or schools, is not supported by any law or guidelines which prohibits such location to be used for the purpose of installation of telecommunication tower. 2. The petition is against public interest and not in furtherance of public interest. The petition is dismissed. There will be no order as to costs. Consequently, WMP No.1901 of 2026 is closed.
